If Jackson can’t play, the Ravens will again turn to Cooper Rush or Tyler Huntley. Harbaugh declined to specify which one would start against the Bears.
In his two starts with Jackson sidelined, Rush completed 25 of 39 passes for 251 yards, with four interceptions for zero touchdowns. He only threw for 72 yards against the Los Angeles Rams before the bye.
Huntley provided a spark late in the game against the Rams, going 10 of 15 for 68 passing yards and 23 rushing yards. It adds more of a common threat.
Huntley also has experience filling in for Jackson against the Bears. In 2021, Jackson fell ill during the Ravens’ trip to Chicago and Huntley stepped in for a 16-13 victory in which he completed 26 of 36 passes for 219 yards.
“I thought Tyler Huntley played well,” Harbaugh said. “He’s been training well. He looks good.”
In other good news, left tackle Ronnie Stanley (ankle), fullback Patrick Ricard (calf), linebacker Roquan Smith (hamstring) and cornerback Chidobe Awuzie (hamstring) were all full participants in practice Wednesday, a good sign as to their availability for Sunday.
The only two players missing from the practice field were cornerback Marlon Humphrey, who is out with an illness, and outside linebacker Tavius Robinson, who was placed on injured reserve with a broken foot. Safety Kyle Hamilton, who spoke to the media after practice, was limited due to his groin injury.
